What New York means for your GLP-1 prescription
- New York Medicaid: covers GLP-1s only in limited cases — usually a diabetes diagnosis, not weight loss. For weight management, cash-pay or commercial insurance is the realistic route.
- New York telehealth rules: New York requires a live video consultation before a GLP-1 can be prescribed — a questionnaire alone is not enough, so expect a scheduled video visit with any provider, LifeMD included.
- State rules change; confirm current New York requirements and whether LifeMD holds licensure there with the provider or the New York medical board before you pay.
